It *might* run, however, V6.2 was the last version of
VMS to support an
11/750. Just like V7.2 will be the last version to support the MV2
family.
First a word from... When DEC says Support they mean assitance not
it will not work. Support is a service they provided and if it's
supported
you could under your support contract call and expect help. If it was
not supported it will likely run but don't call DEC support if it
doesn't.
So that means prior to MV2 is not "supported" but the drivers are
likely there and work.
I'd expect a 750 with RA81 and 8mb ram would run V7.2 just fine.
But if you ask around older 6.2 and V5.5 kits arent that hard to
find. Their owners will likely let you borrow them as it's up to you
to get your own license pak which is not tied to the media.
I have it on good word that V7.3 does still run on MVIIs.
